Maybe you would prefer to have the zipped ASCII file of the entire dataset for your state.
If so, please contact Clara Reschovsky at the Census Bureau, as noted in the prior email,
and she will send it to you on CD. Chuck Purvis of MTC has made SAS programs for CTPP
Part 1 available. I believe his email to the listserv was posted last week.
If you only want one or two tables from Part 1, you should use the EXTRACT command in the
CTPP Access Tool, and you can save your data to many different formats, including .csv,
.dbf, .xls, etc. SAS is NOT one of the formats.

Subject: RE: [CTPP] CTPP2000 Part 1 State released (UPDATE)
We have installed the CD for New Mexico. However, there seems to be no way
to access the data except with the browser. Prior to release of the CD
there was a table of the CTPP 2000 Standard Tabulations: Description of
Variable Category Labels. It would be very useful to directly access the
variables listed in that table in a format similar to other census files
that can be directly read into SAS or Excel.
Does anyone know how to get to the data?
